Overdue!

I'm 40 weeks and 2 days. I'll be getting induced tomorrow. Any advice on what to expect? It's my first child and I am terrified.

They will induce when its the doctors convenience... My Dr told me and he was a douche that induction doesn't hurt but it does because your forcing your body to birth.. It makes the contractions stronger and harder... But I was a wreck I couldn't sleep or anything lol...  I was scheduled to be induced but I was so nervous .. My water broke two hours before I had to go in and my entire labor to birth was 3 hours..and "my doc" didn't even deliver my baby... The nurse did...he just stood there with a stupid smirk on his face

they are supposed to give u another week  or 2 after the due date as this is your first child. and it is expected for first time mothers to have their kids after due date by around 10 days
